a very good film and one of the bargains to be had on BluRay - By: Mr. D. Britton, 08 Jul 2008 
i was pleased with this not your typical blockbuster from america which was refreshing , it concentrated on the build up to hilary swank's character & boy does she play a good part,in fact all actors here were superb even Clint was believable & his usual gritty self.
Well worth the money I got this Bluray for only £6 delivered & I will be keeping it as I really enjoyed the film & the picture quality is very clean & detailed evenin the dark shadowy scenes there is no grain anywhere.
Get it for under a tenner & youwon't be sorry, A good bargain BluRay.
Too much fuss for its own good - By: Dr. Richard W. Gray, 05 Feb 2008 
I'm not being very generous with the stars here, as I'd expected much of this Oscar-winner, & it left me with a feeling that someone had edited the best bits out of my copy of the DVD. Maybe it's a genuine step forward for a Clint Eastwood movie, but the man must be about a hundred, & he'sin no danger of catching up with the cutting edge of world cinema. Most of the movie plods along pleasantly enough, with shades of Shawshankin atmosphere but not a great deal to back it up. Then it rushes headlong through matters of real importance & my overall impression was somehow of cosy predictability. Given the nature of the subject matter (I won't spoil it for you, but as you may have heard the later part of the movie is not so cosyin content), this is both ironic & appalling!
Million Dollar Baby is not a bad movie, & I did enjoy it, & Hollywood can do much worse, but don't rent it thinking you're getting a film of the year.
Million Dollar Baby is also a great title for a movie, but not this one. They appear to have lifted it from either one of two pre-war features; I don't know.
